Structural Insights into the Development of Cycloguanil Derivatives as Trypanosoma brucei Pteridine-Reductase-1 Inhibitors.

ACS Infectious Diseases, 2019
Cycloguanil is a known dihydrofolate-reductase (DHFR) inhibitor, but there is no evidence of its activity on pteridine reductase (PTR), the main metabolic bypass to DHFR inhibition in trypanosomatid parasites.

Electrochemistry of pteridine

Journal of Electroanalytical Chemistry and Interfacial Electrochemistry, 1975
Summary Over the pH range 1–12, pteridine is reduced at the dropping mercury electrode (DME) and pyrolytic graphite electrode (PGE) by way of three polarographic or voltammetric processes. The first, least negative process, is a reversible 2 e -2H + reduction of pteridine to 5,8-dihydropteridine.

Therapeutic potential of pteridine derivatives: A comprehensive review

Medicinal research reviews (Print), 2018
Pteridines are aromatic compounds formed by fused pyrazine and pyrimidine rings. Many living organisms synthesize pteridines, where they act as pigments, enzymatic cofactors, or immune system activation molecules. This variety of biological functions has

Pteridines and affective disorders

Acta Neuropsychiatrica, 2002
The pteridine tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) is an essential cofactor in the biosynthesis of dopamine, (nor)epinephrine, serotonin and nitric oxide (NO). Furthermore, BH4 has a direct influence on release mechanisms of these neurotransmitters and on serotonin receptor binding activityimmunology.

Reductone and the Synthesis of Pteridines

Nature, 1948
As we have pointed out1 that the 3-carbon atom unit comprising the ring atoms 6 and 7 and the exocyclic carbon atom (indicated in heavy type) in pteroic acid (I) might be derived from a triose, 3-phosphoglyceraldehyde and phosphodihydroxyacetone being specifically mentioned, the suggestion by O‘Meara, McNally and Nelson2 that the strongly reducing non ...

Pteridines, Part CXIII

Helvetica Chimica Acta, 2003
AbstractThe low solubility of pterins can drastically be improved by N2‐acylation or formation of the N2‐[(dimethylamino)methylene] derivatives. Both types of compounds can be alkylated under Mitsunobu conditions to form from N2‐acylpterins (see 2 and 3) and their derivatives (see 5, 6, 8, 9, 11, 13, 15, and 17) selectively the O4‐alkyl derivatives 22 ...

Seeing red: pteridine-based colour and male quality in a dragon lizard

Biological Journal of the Linnean Society, 2018
The animal kingdom is represented by a spectacular diversity of colourful species. However, for particular groups, such as lizards, we still know little about the nature of these colours and what they might signal about individual quality.

Polarographic Study of Pteridines

Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 1966
The electronegativity of the half-wave potentials of a series of pteridine congeners was found to be related to the substituent groups. The 2,4,7-triaminopteridines, 7-substituted 4-amino-2-aryl-6-pteridinecarboxarnides, and 4,7-diamino-2-aryl-6-pteridinecarboxamides were characterized, in that order, by decreasingly lower electronegative half-wave ...

A Synthesis of Pteridine

Nature, 1948
ALTHOUGH many derivatives of pteridine, both natural and synthetic, are known, the parent substance pteridine (I) does not appear to have been described. This substance has now been prepared by the condensation of 4 : 5-diaminopyrimidine with glyoxal bisulphite.

Fluorescent Pteridine Derivatives as New Markers for the Characterization of Genuine Monofloral New Zealand Manuka (Leptospermum scoparium) Honey.

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2016
New Zealand manuka honey is well-known for its unique antibacterial activity. Due to its high price and limited availability, this honey is often subject to honey fraud.
